Man Recovering After Flesh-Eating Attack

Miami police are still trying to figure out exactly what happened in a grisly crime that has gathered international headlines: police shot and killed a naked man after he allegedly attacked another naked man and tried to eat his face on a major Miami highway. Neither man has been identified. Police said the victim is recovering in the hospital after his attacker allegedly tried to not only eat his face but also gouge out his eyes. A police officer responded to the scene and reportedly shot the attacker, who continued to chew the other man’s flesh—and the officer then reportedly fired again until the attacker died. Police are still trying to determine what motivated the attack—and whether drugs were involved.
